HI,

For any of you thinking about an extended life battery but aren't sure what works good. I got the Qcell 3650 battery. It's made specifically for T mobile version. I have no idea if it works on the others or not but on the package it says for the Hercules. I got it on amazon for 22 bucks and it's worth every cent. For my job I do alot of driving, and sitting in my car and waiting, so I love to use Netflix, Jetflicks, Listen to Sirius radio while driving. As I'm sure you know those activities will drain your stock battery in a few short hours. I'm able to watch 2 entire movies, Listen to 4 hours of Sirius radio and talk and text. At the end of the day I usually still have %20 left. When I first got it, and I had to drain it till it shut down and charge it back up 2 or 3 times to get the best battery life, I was having a hell of a time getting that to drain. lol. So if you get that you won't be disappointed.

Thanks for your input .. I found a 3500 mah with back cover on eBay for around $8.50 as well .. how long did the charge last initially ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ayyeeallen:
is it possible to get a slim battery thats at least 2000mah
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mobiusheron:
Very reasonable price for 3650 mah. Didn't see any mention of NFC. Always reassuring to have a powerful battery. Seems some really like it while others say it doesn't last any longer the stock battery. Suppose some people didn't have the patience to cycle the battery like you did. Thanks for letting us know that it is working well for you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] knotrkr:
Yes my nfc does work with it. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mobiusheron:
nfc works on this battery?

Thanks for replying. Was wondering if you actually used nfc on this phone and came back here to report that it does. Or does your hercules phone simply reports that nfc is working but, haven't actually tried using nfc.

Thanks in advance. Appreciate your feedback.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] knotrkr:
I think it came with like a %50 charge on it but I charged it to full before I used it. I basicly put wifi on and put movie after movie on Netflix until it died completely. Then I charged to full and repeated that process 3 times. I did have trouble making that battery die. It last sooo long,, by the same token it takes long to charge as well. Best thing is to charge it while you sleep weather I need it or not. NFC does work with this battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] knotrkr:
I'm sure there is. Check Amazon.com, that's what I always go to first. If not try NewEgg,com. If all else fails, there's always Eba y.. but on Amazon,

alawys check out the seller's stats. I only buy from sellers that have %95 positive and up, read some of the feedback and if possible see if someone make a video of it on you-tube. But a 2000 MAH batter isn't really worth paying for, you won't get much more life than you do with the stock.. Hope that Helps, :laugh:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] knotrkr:
HI,

No I didn't have an opportunity to use NFC but it does show up in the settings and activate when you check it. I don't have another phone to test it with. If I find one I'll let you know,, but as far as I know it does.. Maybe I can try it with my Tablet. I'll let you know.. :good:

:EDIT::

I just checked my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and it doesn't have NFC so I am unable to test it as of now. If you know another way I can test it for you let me know and I will..

Take it easy buddy,,

nfc test

There's a free download from play store called "z-device test" that i've used. And many others if you search for "nfc"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bennyhu22:
I've had my qcell in for 2 days and man this thing is a beast. The first night I had to pushy s2 to its limits to fully drain it. It recommended a 9 hour initial charge and then full charge and full discharge cycle 6 times. Good luck getting it to die. This battery far surpasses my expectations for a smartphone battery. Its slight added bulk and weight are welcomed in my opinion. Bay far the best $20 phone accessory I've ever purchased. And it was delivered in 4 days. With a full 180 day warranty you can't go wrong. Quit second guessing and debating and just buy one already lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aurvandel:
Does this battery allow you to use the original phone back and is it NFC capable?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bennyhu22:
No it doesn't allow for use of the original back but it does come with a nice replacement. As far as NFC I'm assuming it works cuz my controller uses NFC to connect and it works just fine. Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rastlin:
What controller are you using?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] knotrkr:

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Harpratap:
You must be doing something wrong..I installed using fontchanger and it works flawlessly..

You don't need clockpia

just use droidsans and droidsans-bold

It's convention of fontchanger to use "fontname".ttf as normal font and "fontname-bold".ttf as bold or even mono

So you will see just one option for droidsans, not two :p

You can use clockpia in advance mode if you want..

Or flash this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1688716

P.S: you can restore data by simply flashing the previous rom without data wipe

or just extract the orignal fonts of your previous rom,replace them with the zip in the above thread and flash it.

[Nexus Q Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Malnilion:
The HDMI audio return channel would mean that a TV could send audio back down to the Nexus Q from another source/input and, by doing this, let one use the Nexus Q as a glorious little makeshift receiver. This would be perfect for a bedroom setup where I don't really care about surround sound and would like for everything (such as cable TV) to play through my stereo speakers that I've attached to the Nexus Q.

I understand that if the hardware technically supports it, the software quite probably does not--even CM10.1 probably doesn't. I'm just trying to get a response, preferably from a developer that has poked around with the drivers and low level interfaces, about whether this dream of mine is a possibility. If this feature is actually working right now out of the box or with CM10.1 installed, though, that'd be great to know as well :)
[Nexus Q Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] animal24:
In my first bit of exploring thinking, my Q wakes itself up, or at least the LEDs when i switch to it on my reciever. And it also enables it as a video destination in youtube and movies when switched to it on my receiver, so its not just a dummy "speak only" hdmi output. It knows when it is connected to something... now just to see if it will do ARC.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lootes:
When you install the new ROM and your contacts first sync from Google they will appear in low res but they will eventually switch over to hi res with use. You can see it happen by selecting a contact. After a few moments the resolution corrects itself. Favorites are automatically loaded in hi res.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Contivity:
Used the app from speedmaster. I trying aokp last night. When my contact was syncing it's still lower res even after couple hours. This includes favorite.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotta35:
As of a while ago images stay high res in JellyBean. As someone already said, when you first install you'll see low res (especially if you do it over 3G) but upon opening the contacts and selecting the image they download the full high res image, the change will happen right before you eyes :).

Do your first sync over WIFI and Favorites will be hi-res right away, the other contacts will come down over time or instantly when you select the contact.

on ota JB Leak OTA stock.

using safestrap 3.11

rooted.

Yesterday my sound on razr maxx stopped working. Sound profile was up all the way and could make phone calls but speaker was not working.

I read I needed to restore my backup of rom because of the sound problem.

when I restored the system to the stock it would get past safestrap but then it would just blackscreen and vibrate once.

My backup did not work at all on the stock partition. I even tried a factory reset, clearing everything, cache, dalvik, system, etc and it still wouldn't restore.

So then I decided to create another rom slot and try to restore my backup it worked perfectly without an issue and booted right up.

Keep in mind this is with the stock ota jb release, not another version.

My question is how do I get the stock partition back. I tried reflashing the ota update but it needs the ics rom to update. Is there a jelly bean ota that doesn't verify the partition before installing?

Thanks a million!!!
